System Expansion Capabilities
1.3.1
PMC Modules
The CP6000 has one PCI-X, 64-bit/66 MHz, 3.3V, rear I/O capable, PMC mezzanine interface.
This interface supports a wide range of available PMC modules with PCI and PCI-X interface
including all of Kontron’s PMC modules and provides an easy and flexible way to configure the
CP6000 for various application requirements.
1.3.2
CTM80-2 Rear I/O Module
The CTM80-2 rear I/O module has been designed for use with the CP6000 6U CompactPCI
board from Kontron Modular Computers. This module provides comprehensive rear I/O
functionality and may also be configured for use in other applications.
For further information concerning the CTM80-2 module, please refer to Appendix A.
1.3.3
CP6000-EXT-SATA Module
The CP6000-EXT-SATA module (order no. CP6000-MK2.5SATA) has been designed for use
with the CP6000 6U CompactPCI board from Kontron Modular Computers and enables the
user to connect an onboard 2.5" Serial ATA hard disk to the CP6000.
For further information concerning the CP6000-EXT-SATA module, please refer to Appendix B.

System Relevant Information
The following system relevant information is general in nature but should still be considered
when developing applications using the CP6000.
Table 1-1: System Relevant Information
SUBJECT
INFORMATION
System Slot / System Master
Functionality
The CP6000 is designed for use as a System Master board whereby it can
support up to 7 peripheral boards with 32-bit / 33 MHz.
It may, however, be operated in a peripheral slot in which case it does not
support the CompactPCI bus interface.
Peripheral Slot Functionality
When installed in a peripheral slot, the CP6000 is electrically isolated from
the CompactPCI bus. It receives power from the backplane and supports rear
I/O and, if the system supports it, packet switching (in this case up to two
channels of Gigabit Ethernet).
Hot Swap Compatibility
When operated as a System Master, the CP6000 supports individual clocks
for each slot and ENUM signal handling is in compliance with the PICMG 2.1
Hot Swap Specification.
When operated in a peripheral slot the CP6000 supports basic hot swap.
Operating Systems
The CP6000 can be operated under the following operating systems:
• Microsoft® Windows® 2000
• Microsoft® Windows® XP
• Microsoft® Windows® XP Embedded
• Linux
• VxWorks®
Please contact Kontron Modular Computers for further information concern-
ing other operating systems.
